Figure 4.
Location of transplants with respect to hippocampal cell layers and subfields. The figure illustrates drawings of serial sections through the hippocampus of a rat that received striatal precursor cell grafts. The tracings of different hippocampal cell layers, subfields and grafts were done using the Neurolucida software. Note that, grafts (the red masses denoted by arrows in all drawings) were located either in the CA3b subregion close to the lateral ends of the granule cell layer (A3, A5, A8) or on the ventral surface of the CA3b subregion with projections into the lateral ventricle below (A1–A10). Scale bar, 1000μm.
